Thanks everyone for your replies and advice.
Yes, I’m still playing limit @ .10/.20 and I will still be playing until I have the correct bankroll to go up to the next level. I’m still sticking to my game plan but occasionally I’ll limp in with connectors on the button if the action is light before me.
I’m hoping that occasionally these junk players will get the better of me, but over the long run their money will become mine. It’s just hard to see that when they get the better of me and others.
Yesterday I had a good session and ended up being $7-$8 up after a couple of hours, which I feel is really good for .10/.20 limit. There was also a junk player who was also up the same amount as me. The only difference was his money was up, down, up, down…… and he must have been looking at the flop 75% of the time. It did go up against him once that I remember of, I had a full house 10’s full of aces (I was dealt the Aces, and the 3 tens came after the turn) and pot was a good size. After the turn I get check raised and alarm bells start ringing, and remember two recent full houses that let me down big time. I figure that quad 10’s is the only hand that can beat me, and I’ve already noted this guy is playing anything. I’m not going to lay this hand down, so I only call. The river is a nothing card and he bets, this guy has got me thinking now, but I’m not laying it down so I call. I win the pot a little less than $4 if I remember correct. He played a J,4 suited or something stupid like that, and I don’t remember a flush dray being up on the board. I’m disappointed I did not take this fool to the cleaners, but glad I did not lose to another junk hand.
So, how well did I play is hand? Should I have raised his raises? This guy is playing anything, was I right to be cautious of his raises? I should have this hand on poker tracker, if we need a closer look! I really value everyone’s opinion.
